    Perfect and stunning location to Hveragerdi Church. And close enough to The Meadow, the geothermal river, and Hveragerdi.

    hot tub
    weak wi-fi

    The location is perfect for observing the

    Northern lights, and the hot tub was a welcome retreat after a long day. The staff was helpful, yet the Wi-Fi connection was weak at times, made staying connected difficult.

    The staff was genuinely friendly. Always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. Such a nice touch! The location was perfect for exploring nearby attractions. Just a short drive away.

    It was all perfect. The reception had even made a note of our telephone number to wake us if there were northern lights during the night. As an additional advantage (to whom it may concern) there were also German television channels. With a total of 9 different accommodations in Iceland I think I can judge the price/performance ratio and that was never better than in this hotel. We can only recommend it to anyone.

    This location was perfect and exceptionally nice, close enough to the centr of town, and Iceland for the day. Twin room included central heating, a work desk and a TV set. The staff were competent and provided help. Actually everything was amazing, my next choice again in Hveragerdi.

    Didn't like the staff, some of them were very rude.

    friendly staff
    diverse breakfast
    limited view
    hallway noise
    lack of kettle

    Cute staff enhanced the experience. The breakfast stood out with an excellent variety, and afternoon tea was a good touch. While the room was adequately sized and clean, the views could be better, as the environment offers magnificent landscapes and fine waterfalls nearby. Noise from the hallway was occasionally distracting, and the absence of a kettle in the room made morning routines less convenient.

    friendly staff (especially Friederike), quiet room, breakfast simple but good, one of the best hotels we had during our tour of Iceland

    We were there for 2 nights and felt very comfortable, rooms are rather functional but sufficient, staff very friendly and helpful and the food sensational. We booked a beginner riding tour . highly recommended and in the evening in the hot pot under the starry sky... beautiful.

    spacious room
    comfy beds
    relaxing open-air bath
    too warm hot tub

    I loved the spacious room with easy patio access and those super comfy beds made for a great night's sleep! The garden area and relaxing open-air bath were perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. One small hitch was that one of the hot tubs was too warm for our liking, but we still enjoyed our time overall. 😊

    Location: the hotel was adjacent to the main sights in the Golden circle, Eldhestar for morning or afternoon rides, and Iceland for the day from Belfast. The staff from start to finish were exceptionally nice. The breakfast was amazing and superb with bacon and diferent local food, as for instance and the restaurant food was excellent.
